The Bayou Battles Bolt Action Tournament will be worth 190 total points, broken down as follows.
Battle Points (100)
Each game will be worth 20 points, and will consist of 2 parts. The Primary Objectives are worth up to 16 points. The points will be awarded as follows, based on the victory conditions of the scenario:
Win – 16
Draw – 10
Loss – 4
There will also be specific secondary objectives for each scenario that are worth an additional 4 points. Some of these points may be earned by both sides.
Painting (30)
Each army should be painted to a 3-color minimum. The army will be judged and awarded a score from 0-30. The score will be awarded on the quality of the paint job—details, shading/highlights, basing, consistent theme/scheme, etc.
Sportsmanship (50)
Each player starts with 35 points, as we think everyone is a good sport already. At the end of each game, you will give your opponent either a Good Game or a Bad Game mark. Each Bad Game mark will cost you points—2 points for the first bad game, 5 points for 2 bad games, 10 points for 3 bad games, 20 for 4, and all 35 for 5! At the end of the tournament, you will be asked to vote for your top 3 opponents. You will earn 3 points for each best opponent vote, 2 points for each 2nd best opponent votes, and 1 point for 3rd best opponent votes.
Military Precision [On-Time] (10)
5 points: turning in your army list by the deadline
1 point: starting and ending each game on time
